Limit and Limit Entry Orders

Description

The most common order type is the market order which is usually the best option when a trader needs to enter and exit a trade on the fly. A Limit Entry Order differs from a market order in two primary ways. First, a Limit Entry Order requires that you specify an entry price wher you want to enter a trade. The second is that a Limit Entry Order can only fill at the requested price or at a better price whereas a Market Order can fill at a the requested price, a better price, or at a worse price.

Demo Account: Although demo accounts attempt to replicate real markets, they operate in a simulated market environment. As such, there are key differences that distinguish them from real accounts; including but not limited to, the lack of dependence on real-time market liquidity and the availability of some products which may not be tradable on live accounts. The operational capabilities when executing orders in a demo environment may result in atypically, expedited transactions; lack of rejected orders; and/or the absence of slippage. There may be instances where margin requirements differ from those of live accounts as updates to demo accounts may not always coincide with those of real accounts.
